If you’re planning on giving yourself a facial at home, I’ve got some nifty tips for making it as zen-like as possible and just as high-quality as you’d get at a fancy spa! Facials are a terrific way to relax, pamper yourself and give your skin the royal treatment. And while going to a trendy day spa is nice, who can afford those high prices on a regular basis?! Pencil yourself in for an at-home spa day and give yourself an awesome facial at home!

1. Gather Your Spa Items

If you want to give yourself a top-notch facial at home, the first thing you want to do is prepare. Get all your beauty products and spa items to help create a serene environment so you won’t be caught without a must-have item during your “me” #time. Put together some relaxing music, a robe, candles, aromatherapy oils, a headband, a mask or ingredients for homemade mask (check AWS for mask recipes), #skin care products and water infused with cucumbers or fruits.
